    What I don't understand is that if you guys don't like Cramer, why do you even watch him???????????? I actually saw a replay of the "Cramer meltdown;" my comment is why was he so shy in voicing his opinions? Reply

    Apparently, CNBC likes to market Jimbo's meltdown.
    Bloomberg is much better resource for investrors. CNBC is entertainment. I like Erin Burnett; she works hard and is sincere.
    Najarian and Macke spew out some good stuff once in awhile but I would not buy/sell on anything they say. Don't know why they have Karen Finerman on there; she does not want to give out information.
    She kited MSFT and YHOO way past the time when it was clear they were dogs with fleas.

    Cramer and CNBC are in the entertainment business, not the market advice business. The best way to play Cramer is to short his picks. Don Harrold has a series of videos using Cramer vs Cramer to show how bad the picks are. www.youtube.com/watch?... Reply

    Cramer was wrong so many times, way too many times. I am glad I ahven't followed any of his advice. Why he does not recommend short plays? There is more money to be made on the sell side. What's wrong with shorting?

    Can you imagine the 'Mad Bear' program?

    Yesterday, CNBC ATTEMPTED to shed some credibility toward Jim Cramer's way. They cited a blow up of his involving the Feds handling of the Financial crisis. My opinion is that even a blind squirrel sometimes fines the nuts. He really screwed the shareholders of Sirius. He's a jackass and I can yell just as loud as he can, if that's what it takes to be right. Reply

    Most the betterpart of the day Friday, CNBC keep repeating the segment on Erin Burnett's show a while back when Cramer damn near freaked out and went postal on her. During the 5 minute tyrade he completely lost it and accused the FED and everybody else involved in banking since the beginning of all time of being in gross violation of everything. Jesus, what a gasbag! I remember seeing the original broadcast and I kept wondering to myself at the time that Erin Burnett is one cool cucumber for not loosing her composure during Cramer's meltdown. She just stood there and looked down at her paper, choosing to let him run down and hang himself, instead of trying to turn him off. Quite surprisingly, I was amazed that the producers choose to let Cramer get so far in his on-air tyrade. Usually when someone goes outside the perimeter like that and becomes a loose canon, they pull the plug on them and disolve to a commercial. In this case, they choose not to.
    I was surprised that they continued to air this episode many times on Friday. In fact, everytime they replayed it on Friday, they wore it like a badge of honor. For my part it would have been a terrible embarrasement.

    Actually, if you check the Hulbert report, Cramer is right up there with most successful investors. (Beat out marginally by Tobin Smith, who in my opinion is just a big gas-bag... But there you go..) At any rate, It has been stated many times that a success rate of about 50% will produce winning results if you manage your losses. Cramer actually is a winner. He is also 'entertainment', but really has pulled the common man into the investment world. Whether or not he misses on your favorite stock is immaterial.

    If I were going to fault him, it would be in that he does not provide beginning investors precise information on when to buy, where to place your stops and when to get out. For that, I suspect, you'd need to be more involved in the technicals side of things. Cramer is decidedly not into technicals. This is where uninformed investors will really lose their shirts as the buy all the way down and confuse momentary excitement with a real price turn.

    The problem with cramer is the quick flip flops. one day cabot oil and gas is hot and at 65 a must buy. 2 weeks later it isn't even mentioned and the stock is down 40%. his portfolio was down 15% and the s&p 17% so he doesn't exactly blow the indexes away Reply

    "TIRED" - do you expect 100% accuracy from even the best stock mkt minds? Buffet makes bad calls, Jim Rogers makes bad calls, Cramer makes bad calls. You need to check your expectations and do your own homework. Reply

    Let's see. He just called the market bottom the other day so it should be nowhere but up from here. Also the financials, according to him, are at their bottom. That's a lot of money for people to lose if they follow his advice. Mark the date. Reply

    What is Cramer still doing on tv? Good Dr., when you give advice under any circumstances - financial, personal, medical - when new information presents itself (JNJ reported earnings on 7/15) - you must take that into consideration. He's not a fortune teller. He draws conclusions based on information at hand. As does anyone else in the advice business. Heal thy self. Reply
